    How true, but recent group to group and thread to thread activities are dwindling due to group moderation changes and thread to thread awareness when a new comment has been made.
    Now many members don’t know even if a new thread / discussion has been started.

      Hey Dr. Robert….very true. LinkedIn Groups are certainly not as engaging and active as they used to be. And, agreed….the notification system leaves a lot to be desired. That said, I still think there is potential with Linkedin Groups if in the RIGHT group as there are still email notifications that go out to Group members for recent discussions (that would include your photo in the email). So strictly from an “awareness” standpoint, the more you can get your name/photo out there, the more touch points you’ll have with potential prospects that could see you in their email notifications.
